What Our Clients Say

Patrick Molyneaux

“Our business adopted a strengths-based approach to leadership and employee development. What a difference! We’ve not only grown, but have given our best people more opportunities and more reasons to stay with us. Along the way, I’ve become a much better leader. I recommend Dan and Carol to any size or any type of business or non-profit, particularly a closely-held enterprise such as ours.”

“My work with Carol going through StrengthsFinder coaching has been incredibly helpful for my role as a supervisor and to better understand myself. It is incredibly affirming work to know what you are good at, how you lead, and how others experience you. I received gentle leadership from Carol. She is excellent at moving you through a process of self-discovery, asking good questions, and encouraging exploration.”

“Dan Dupee was exceptionally attentive and thoughtful in his engagement as my StrengthsFinder coach, and showed genuine care as we discussed my strengths. He helped to reframe my thinking around ‘weaknesses’ and strengths. I learned SO MUCH about myself with his guidance. I would highly recommend his services!”

“Dan and Carol have provided invaluable help to our church staff of ten. Individually, we grew in our self-comprehension, but even better was the enhanced appreciation of our teammates. Each of us came to better understand our co-workers, including what motivates and demotivates them. I highly recommend what Dan and Carol have to offer teams as well as individuals.”
